There is double negation here which might be confusing, but hopefully clearer
if you have to read the statement as
if failed -> request "/some/uri/file.xml"
if failed -> content = ‘type=“alarm”’
The last part means, if the response failed to produce content with
‘type=“alarm”’ then fail. Which is the opposite of what you want. To fix this
negate the test,
with content != 'type="alarm"'
Duh.
Thank you. It's as simple as that and works.
But I have a special case where it doesn't work in that way, but for
other reasons. I'm starting another thread.
